Have I Trusted in God?

Scripture: Titus 3: [8] This is a trustworthy saying. And I want you to stress these things, so that those who have trusted in God may be careful to devote themselves to doing what is good. These things are excellent and profitable for everyone.

Observation: Why is trust so hard for me? I remember when God put Proverbs 3:5,6 on my heart to remind me to trust in Him for everything. I know I’ve come a long way but I haven’t come far enough, because if I did I would be devoted in doing good things. I do good things from time to time and it is my heart’s desire to do so, but I’m not devoted. It says to be careful to do good things which means I need to watch what I do at all times so I can be profitable to everyone.

Application: I need to watch what I do all of the time. I know I have had more negative thoughts today than positive ones and a lot of what I did was for me and not for good. I want people to see me as Jesus’ servant, doing good things, a person people can depend on for doing what is right.

Prayer: Dear lord help me do good things. Make me aware of what I am doing and guide me to do the things that please you. I’m here for a short time, may that time glorify you and help others.
